An inventor claims to have devised a closed cyclic engine which exchanges heat with cold and hot reservoirs at 25 and 350 ◦C, re

spectively, and produces 0.45 kJ of work for every kJ of heat extracted from the hot reservoir. Is this claim believable?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

T_{c} = 25^{o}C,  T_{h} = 350^{o}C

Work produced per kJ of heat extracted from hot reservoir = 0.45 kJ = Efficiency

If the device is Carnot cycle then its efficiency will be maximum and its value will be equal to [1 - (\frac{T_{c}}{T_{h}} )]

Using this relation we will calculate the efficiency as follows.

                 Efficiency = [1 - (\frac{T_{c}}{T_{h}} )]

                        = 1 - (\frac{25}{350})

                       = 0.928

Hence, it means that this type of device is possible and the claim is also believable.

Depicted below you will see the molecules COH2 and SO3 . Why is COH2 polar while SO3 isn’t?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When we look at SO3 we will notice that the compound is trigonal planar and it is symmetric. This means that it has equal charge distribution hence its dipoles cancel out resulting in a zero net dipole moment.

However, COH2 is also trigonal planar but is non-symmetric. Hence, its dipole moments do not cancel out, hence the molecule has a resultant dipole moment and is a polar molecule

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Iron is the element that is produced at the limit of the reaction.

Explanation:

In nuclear fusion 2 lighter nuclei are combined together into a single nucleus releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the process.

Up to fusion of iron the reaction of fusion is exothermic but when iron atom pops out the reaction becomes endothermic and it requires very high amount of energy to fuse iron atoms which is not available thus marking an end to the fusion reaction.
